I have an MS SQL Server 2008 Express system which contains a database that I would like to ‘copy and rename’ (for testing purposes) but I am unaware of a simple way to achieve this.
I notice that in the R2 version of SQL Server there is a copy database wizard, but sadly I can’t upgrade.
The database in question is around a gig.
I attempted to restore a backup of the database I want to copy into a new database, but with no luck.
